Eric Clapton Five Long Years

Have you ever been mistreated? You know just what I'm talking aboutHave you ever been mistreated? You know just what I'm talking aboutI worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve to put me out

I got a job in a steel mill, shucking steel like a slaveFive long years, every Friday I come straight back home with all my payHave you ever been mistreated? You know just what I'm talking aboutI worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve to put me out

I finally learned my lesson, should a long time agoThe next woman that I marry, she gonna work and bring me the doughHave you ever been mistreated? You know just what I'm talking aboutI worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerveShe had the nerveShe had the nerveShe had the nerve to put me out
